MinimServer download triggers Smartscreen Filter security warning!

[haggis999]

Hyperlinks are the engine of online hypertext documents but only relevant for a Word document that will always be read on screen (and even then only for external website references, not for internal references within the document). In fact, the next job I planned to do with my draft manual was to remove all the hyperlinks embedded in the text I copied from the website. A printed document or textbook has no such thing as a hyperlink.

A conventional index does indeed meet your requirement for "many pointers to the same section for different words or phrases" in the sense that it would normally contain references to the same page for different words or phrases. I agree that it may not always be useful to reference every location of a given word or phrase and eliminating trivial references is another part of the laborious manual process of creating a good quality index.

BTW, I have just realised that the 'User guide' section of the website is not a comprehensive source of MinimServer information. There is also a lot of very useful stuff listed under other headings on the MinimServer home page. Most of this probably belongs in a printable version of the user guide.
